Earlier that day,

Alice was on her way to her yoga class in her black Camero. She and Gary had bought the same car during their third anniversary a few months ago.

Speaking of Gary, she hadn't called him since he had left the house about two days ago. She was still angry at him for leaving even though she wasn't done talking. All she wanted to have was a civilized conversation with Gary but he was so afraid of any arguments that she got irritated and started an argument in the end.

To be honest, she didn't know who to blame. Herself or Gary.

Gary was always avoiding any confrontation of any kind. Even though they had been dating for three years, they had never had any arguments because Gary always avoided them.

If they were about to argue, Gary would just apologize and it would end there.

While she was not angry about this, it had started to become annoying at some point. Most especially when she wanted to talk to him about something important like the previous topic that led to this

    "Got any plans?", Gary asked."Just one. You take care of the guys here, I've got the others.", Kelvin responded."That's nice and all but how am I supposed to do that?""Bro, there's no time. There are hidden cabinets everywhere in this house, as long as it exists, there's a hidden cabinet there.", Kelvin said.He then hit the side of the fridge and the top compartment door opened. Gary looked inside to see three pistols with spare magazines inside the fridge."What the fuck?", Gary said in surprise."Just pick a gun and go!", Kelvin shouted as he grabbed a gun and ran out of the kitchen."Well this is absolute madness.", Gary quickly grabbed the desert eagle at the top and aimed outside the back door at the closest person.BANG!The force from the bullet hitting the man dead square on his chest threw him on his back!Gary looked at the gun with widened eyes. He had shot the man in his bulletproof vest but with the way the man just flew, the bullet had definitely penetrated it.He qu

What's it doing there?""You gave it to me when I borrowed it last night.", Nicole responded with her gaze still on the TV."I did?", Cassidy asked. She couldn't remember giving Nicole the charger."Just go take it and stop pestering me.", Nicole said with a sigh.Cassidy grumbled in mild annoyance before moving up the stairs to go get the charger.Just as she left, the movie Nicole was watching ended and she switched to a news channel to get the weather report but it hadn't started yet.She just started reading the headlines at the bottom of the screen and her eyes widened in surprise when she read the third one."Cas

    October 5th, 2022....The White House, Washington DC."You promised me that this would be done on the low and yet I woke up this morning to see dead bodies on the news.", Alexander said with an annoyed expression."That was beyond our control.", Simon responded calmly."Beyond your control? I signed that document because you told me everything would be under control!", Alexander shouted in anger.He was getting tired of Simon being overly calm during situations like this. While he admired it at times, it was very frustrating for him at certain points."Please calm down Mr president, I assure you that would not happen again.", Simon said.Alexander breathed in and out to calm himself down. "How has the mission been progressing so far?", Alexander asked after he had calmed down."We've assassinated about half of the people on the list and some members of my team are on their way to handle the rest. The only problem we have encountered is with Kelvin and Gary who managed to hold their

    October 6th, 2022....In the safe house in New York sat Kelvin, Gary, Steve, and Jerry. They were in a meeting to deal with the current situation.Even though the Apostles was an organization that operated from the shadows, they still had a very strict hierarchy system and the four people sitting around this table were at the very top.Steve was a member of the apostles who got promoted after his skills, loyalty, and other factors had been tested and trusted. While he was still Kelvin's bodyguard on normal days, he was also the man in charge of every single one of their offensives.In summary, anything that involved the Apostles showing force was usually headed by this man.Jerry's role on the other hand didn't fall too far from Steve's in the sense that Steve could not operate without him, no one could. He was Kelvin's left-hand man and his nickname was the information broker.Every single one of the Apostles' operations from the day they were formed till this day had always been a

    October 7th, 2022....The White House, Washington DC."What do you mean by he's missing?!", Alexander exclaimed."We couldn't find him sir or his body at least.", The man responded."This can't be happening.", Alexander said before slumping down on his chair.A few moments ago, the man standing in front of him had come in and informed him that the FBI director, Simon, had gone missing.It had taken a moment or two for those words to register in Alexander's head and even when they did, he couldn't still believe it!There was no way Simon would run away from his duties so the only other explanation was that the Apostles had gotten to him and knowing their reputation, they would probably send him back in pieces.While this was a bad thing, it did bring a piece of good news too. For the Apostles to react in this way meant that Simon's plan was working!If there was no valid incentive to continue with this plan before, there was now."Wait, you said something about a dead body?", Alexand

    The roaring sound of the Chevy 2022 Camaro was all that filled Kelvin's ears as he maneuvered past the cars on the road to avoid the SUVs that were chasing him.He turned the steering and shifted lanes before speeding up again but that little movement had made one of the SUVs catch up with them.The car drove up to their side and the window glass came down to reveal a man pointing an assault rifle at them but before he could fire, a bullet went right through his head."This isn't a movie moron, I know exactly what you're gonna do. Better change tactics in your next life.", Kelvin said as he dropped the pistol in his grasp and sped up again."I suggest you concentrate on driving because we are about to get shot at.", Gary informed but before Kelvin could respond, he heard the faint sounds of gunshots and the glass at the back of the car broke!A man stuck out from the window of one of the SUVs and was shooting at them from behind!"Shit!", Kelvin exclaimed as he pressed down more on the

    October 8, 2022Kelvin's eyes fluttered before opening up slowly. He then released a groan as he finally felt the pain from the previous event.There was some sort of stiffness he was feeling on his left hand, he looked at it and saw that there was a needle connected to a drip that hung from a stand by his side. He removed the needle from his skin and winced as he did so.He then got up slowly and noticed that he was back in the safe house and was lying on the bed in the room he usually slept in.Just as he got this realization, the door to the room flung open and Gary walked inside. He was wearing black shorts, a white singlet, and flip-flops with his brown hair slowly dripping water."You're awake.", Gary said as he walked in."Yeah.", Kelvin responded, "I want to apologize for what I did. It was a stupid thing to do.""It's cool. You don't have to worry about it.", Gary replied."Alright. Since that's taken care of, I've got two questions.", Kelvin said, still looking at Gary's get-

    "Woah.", Steve managed to utter.This whole thing was incredible! It looked like something you would see in one of those mission-impossible movies."So, what do you think?", Jerry asked with a smile."The fact that you are in charge of all of this is insane. It's pretty cool though.", Steve said."It is insane, but the Apostles would never be able to operate without this place right here as well as the other branches around the world.", Jerry smiled.Steve nodded in agreement. This place was very crucial to everything they did. However, taking care of this whole thing wasn't a day's job and that was why he deeply respected Jerry for all that he did.But he definitely won't tell him that."Gary said you were going to brief me more on what I'm here to do.", Steve said, bringing Jerry's attention back to the reason he was here."True.", Jerry responded."I hope I won't be joining you in sitting at a desk?", Steve queried."Of course not," Jerry laughed, "And what makes you think I sit at

    The feminine pride

    Music blared from the car's speaker and Henry bopped his head to the beat and rhythm as he drove. He had begun to play songs because the car was too quiet and Kelvin had made it clear from his lackluster response that he was not ready to indulge in small talk. It was almost five pm when they arrived at a place unfamiliar to Henry, but considering he was still new here, most places were unfamiliar. There was a gate in front of them and makeshift walls that seemed to block off a large open area. Looking left and right, Henry noticed that many people flocked around the area."Approach the gate," Kelvin ordered.Henry slowly drove closer to the gate and stopped at the behest of one of the two hefty security men there. "Can I help you?" One of them asked when he got to the side of the car. Kelvin gestured at Henry who reduced the volume of the music before he took off his shades and the man unknowingly gasped in surprise when he recognized who he was."Oh my God, Mr. Kelvin!," The man

    "Turn here," Kelvin said and Henry turned the steering wheel to the direction he pointed.The drive was mostly silent with Kelvin telling Henry when to turn when he approached an intersection. Henry had wanted to ask where they were going to, but Kelvin's serious expression as he looked at his phone discouraged him.He could guess that wherever they were going to, it was important to his uncle. The drive went on for a few minutes until Kelvin told him to stop in front of a store."Here?" Henry asked in confusion as he looked at the store. The place looked shady and it made him feel uncomfortable. It was definitely not a place he would expect his uncle to be affiliated with.Kelvin didn't reply him but just stepped out of the car and walked into the store. Henry just sat in there wondering if he should follow him in or not, or if he should just leave.Henry ended up waiting for his uncle for about five minutes and yet there was no sign of him coming out. He was on edge.Suddenly, a w

    The men shot at Gary frantically as he jumped out the window. As he was free-falling outside, Gary grabbed the window frame on the third floor and swung himself through the window while maintaining his momentum. He crashed into the room and rolled on the ground before a wardrobe stopped his momentum when he almost broke through it.The men rushed to the window and looked down but they could not see Gary. Confused, they ran out of the room.The noise was bound to bring attention.Gary rolled on his back with a groan before trying to control his erratic breathing.His hands hurt from the force he used to swing himself in here, and he was sure he had dislocated his shoulders.He felt pain in his midsection and looked down to see a bullet wound and a large shard of glass lodged a few inches away from his chest."Yeah, I'm fucked..." Gary said as he bled out on the room's floor......Henry waved at Bianca who waved back before going into her house. He watched her go in before entering

    "Hey," Bianca waved at Henry the moment he walked in.Henry smiled and walked over to her table and sat down opposite her."What's good?" Henry asked."Everything now that you're here," Bianca smiled."Okay, kill the flirting Bianca," Henry laughed."I don't think I can," Bianca bit her lower lip.Henry scoffed, "Honestly, I thought what we had was just a one-night stand. I have zero idea why I'm here or why I agreed to be here.""You're here because you know you didn't want it to just be a one-time thing," Bianca responded."Bold assumption. What makes you say that?" Henry asked."Well, if I was wrong you wouldn't be here," Bianca grinned."I can't affirm nor deny the accuracy of that logic," Henry smiled back."I hear the bathrooms here are really neat, wanna come see it with me?" Bianca asked.Before Henry could answer, she had already gotten up and began to walk into the cafe's restroom.Henry just sat there watching her leave with a smile and after a few seconds, he got up and we

    I don't give a shit

    Henry drove through the roads with his new car; a Mercedes Benz.Kelvin had told him that this was a gift and that anything that goes wrong with the car, he would have to fix it by himself.If it was in the past, Henry would have rejected the car since he wouldn't know how to gather the money to fix it if something went wrong, but since he knew that he would be getting a job soon, he took on the responsibility.Henry was supposed to have met up with Bianca like ten minutes ago, but since this was his first car, he decided to go on a joyride first and get a good feel of it.However, he had taken a few turns and would be at Bianca's house in a few minutes.He suddenly heard his phone ring and he reached for it to see Bianca's name on the caller ID."Hey, what's up? Sorry, I'm on my way to your place now," Henry said as he picked up the call."Oh, yeah, about that, don't go to my house," Bianca responded."Why? You wanna cancel?" Henry asked."No, I'm just not there. Meet me at the spot

    Cassidy sat down in the building's waiting area and looked around nervously. She had on a face mask which she used to cover her face so she wouldn't be identified.After all, she was quite popular now after the release of her first single under her record label.The reason she was even in New York was because she had a concert she would be performing in.'Why am I even here?' Cassidy kept asking herself in her head.'This is someone who hadn't called me in months. Don't I have a sense of dignity?'"Hey Cassy," Cassidy heard a painfully familiar voice and she turned to see Kelvin looking at her with a smile."Hi Kelvin," She responded before standing up.Kelvin stretched his hand to her, "come, walk with me."Cassidy looked at his hand before looking back at his face. Her expression told Kelvin already telling Kelvin what she was thinking."Ok," Kelvin dropped his hand, "why don't you just walk with me? Without holding my hand."Cassidy responded with a groan and they both walked outsi

    Maybe you should call her

    The door to the apartment opened and Henry walked in. He took off his shoes and threw them to the side and walked into the living room.Kelvin sat on the couch watching the morning news. He glanced at Henry when he came in, but he quickly brought his gaze back to the television."I'm really sorry about this whole thing uncle," Henry apologized as he sat down on the other couch.He had woken up this morning to find out that his uncle was back. He had initially panicked and wanted to rush Bianca out of the apartment, but Kelvin had told him not to.Kelvin had stepped out so that Bianca would not see him when she woke up. When she did, she and Henry had spoken for a bit before she freshened up and was ready to leave.Henry took the car and drove her to the house. It was quite a distance away, but Kelvin had permitted him to take the car for as long as he needed.He was just coming back to find that Kelvin had already returned and was chilling in the living room."You don't have to apolo

    let's not bother with small talk

    Henry and Bianca walked into the building through security who just let them in after a brief search."I thought you lived here?" Bianca asked when they reached the elevator."I do," Henry answered as he clicked on the button to call the elevator and then turned to her."Then why did they search us?""That's standard security procedures," Henry explained, "I might live here, but it's still one of the biggest cooperations in the world.""You do make a point," Bianca nodded slightly.It was at this moment that the elevator doors opened and they both got in. Henry clicked on the button to take them to the 19th floor where the apartment was."I've been meaning to ask, why do you stay here?" Bianca queried."I guess I like it here. Being close to my place of work makes me feel fulfilled in a way," Henry answered.Now that was a lie. Henry didn't want to tell her that he stayed here with his uncle, thinking that she would view that as a red flag and leave.It was completely a lie since he w

    I'm Henry Gregory

    Henry put on some of the designer wear that he got during his shopping spree with his uncle and looked at himself in the mirror.Seeing that his outfit was top-notch, he picked up the car key and went down to the parking lot where he got into the car and drove off.He didn't know where he was going since he was new in New York, but thanks to the modern age, all he needed was to search a place up.After scrolling through the multiple suggestions from the internet, Henry made a few choices.Now all that was left, was to party.Henry went from nightclub to nightclub, dancing, and drinking. But just enough to not make him wasted.He still had more places to go to, so it'll be a bummer if he got too drunk to do anything.At least half a bottle of beer per club would do.Henry spent at least thirty minutes at every club, but when he got to the seventh one, he ended up staying a bit longer to clear up his head.He could already feel himself getting tipsy.He found himself resting face down a
